The incident occurred at Sinendet village.

A family source said Benjamin Kuria, 17, faced the knife on Friday.

On Sunday, he started complaining of massive headaches but was not taken to hospital due to a heavy downpour.

“He collapsed and died on Monday just before he was taken to the hospital,” the source said.

Area chief Lewis Kiaraho confirmed the incident.

“It is a mysterious death but I can confirm there was no assault,” Kiaraho said.
